TAMA GO: ORF and NMD predictions #92

Hi, I would like to ask if TAMA GO: ORF and NMD predictions are available to predict lncRNAs.

Thanks, An

Hi An,

The TAMA ORF/NMD pipeline finds protein hits and CDS for the transcript models. If a transcript model has no hits this could be interpreted as possible a lncRNA. However, there are different ways of predicting lncRNA, so in general it is best to use a variety of methods to see what is consensus.

Thank you, Richard
